Chapter 247: Counterattack

This night, the Mongolian tribe base camp was lit up all night, and the eldest prince personally interrogated the man who kidnapped Ningxia Qing, and Xiao Jingyuan's tent was also brightly lit, except for Xiao Jingyuan, who was anxiously pacing back and forth, there was also Tan Wenshi with a worried face.

Tan Wenshi looked at Xiao Jingyuan, in the dim candlelight, Tan Wenshi's expression was very strange, unlike Xiao Jingyuan, who was annoyed and angry, Tan Wenshi's face didn't even show the slightest displeasure, but with a sigh of relief.

Tan Wenshi sighed and said with a flat sigh of relief: "Xiao Gongzi doesn't have to worry, in the final analysis, there are people from the Yelu tribe in front of this matter, even if the eldest prince wants to investigate, he can only find out that it was the hands and feet of the Yelu tribe, and it is unlikely that we will be traced back to the Yelu tribe." ”

Xiao Jingyuan glanced at Tan Wenshi, because of Tan Wenshi's attitude, Xiao Jingyuan's eyes couldn't help but show suspicion, and asked, "What went wrong with this matter?" Why is it the way it is? ”

Tan Wenshi said calmly: "It should be that the people of the Yelu tribe are not doing well, and they are showing their feet." ”

Xiao Jingyuan still stared at Tan Wenshi for a while, and finally looked away as if bored, and waved his hand impatiently.

Xiao Jingyuan said worriedly: "Don't worry about the others, the most important thing at the moment is not to let the eldest prince find out the general." It's best to be like you said, the eldest prince will stop after finding King Yelu, even if he tracks me down again, it doesn't matter, as long as the general is not found. ”

Xiao Jingyuan only hopes that the eldest prince will best count all the things on King Yelu's head, even if Xiao Jingyuan behind King Yelu is found, it doesn't matter, Xiao Jingyuan can completely push a few of his subordinates out to take the blame, even if Xiao Jingyuan is exposed, this matter can be attributed to the century-old grudge between the Xiao family and the Ning family.

But if the eldest prince traces down the Qi head general behind Xiao Jingyuan, it will be difficult to do. At that time, the reputation of the general will be damaged and his status will be lost, and the power of the Xiao clan in the Mongolian tribe will also be damaged, and without the strong help of Mongolia, the power of the Xiao clan in the Central Plains will also encounter a crisis.

However, although Xiao Jingyuan is so hopeful, he also understands that the relationship between the eldest prince and the great general Qi Shou has long been dead and alive, and there is this opportunity to bring down the great general of Qi Shou, and it is almost impossible for the eldest prince to let it go, unless the eldest prince did not think of this layer, but Xiao Jingyuan does not think that with the mind of the eldest prince, he will not think of this layer.

Seeing that Xiao Jingyuan's face was not good, Tan Wenshi sighed and said with relief: "It's late at night now, Xiao Gongzi might as well relax and rest for a while." I think that with the gentle style that the eldest prince has always had, he should not bite the general to death with this incident. ”

Xiao Jingyuan looked at Tan Wenshi.

Tan Wenshi's attitude is very strange, Tan Wenshi's attitude towards the current predicament is a little overly optimistic. It made people say that it was not good for a while, he just wanted to say good and obedient words in front of Xiao Jingyuan and comfort Xiao Jingyuan, or this result was what Tan Wenshi expected.

Xiao Jingyuan's eyes flashed with suspicion, and he immediately brought the topic back again: "I don't know yet, what went wrong with this matter?" Why is it exposed? ”

Tan Wenshi glanced at Xiao Jingyuan, and as soon as his eyes moved, his brows couldn't help frowning. Xiao Jingyuan is not a person who is moody, and Xiao Jingyuan's suspicion of Tan Wenshi in his heart at this moment is already obvious.

Tan Wenshi just shook his head helplessly at Xiao Jingyuan and didn't explain anything. In front of Xiao Jingyuan, who lost his mind at this moment, the explanation would make Xiao Jingyuan more entangled in this matter.

Xiao Jingyuan snorted coldly, glared at Tan Wenshi with disdain, then moved his gaze, sat back in his chair, and also withdrew his suspicions, thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "The most important thing at the moment is to protect the general and not expose it first." ”

Xiao Jingyuan beckoned, Tan Wenshi walked in front of Xiao Jingyuan knowingly, Xiao Jingyuan commanded in a low voice: "You hurry up and find them now, you must make sure that their tone is tight enough, go quickly." ”

Tan Wenshi arched his hand and said, "Yes." ”

Xiao Jingyuan stood up again, Tan Wenshi was stunned, and asked a little confused and flattering: "It's so late, Xiao Gongzi should rest early, if there is anything you tell me to do, it's okay." ”

Xiao Jingyuan waved his hand and said, "I'm going to find my brother-in-law." Then he rode out.

It's just that the moon is already in the middle of the day, and the general and his wife have already rested, so Xiao Jingyuan has no choice but to return in vain, planning to come back when the sky is dawn.

After Ning Xia Qing was questioned, he returned to his account, and while asking Cuiyu to give him medicine, he listened to Cuiyu's chatter.

Ningxia Qingben was already sleepy and his eyelids were trembling, but when Cuiyu talked about it, he suddenly sobered up.

Cuiyu said that she was very panicked after she couldn't find Ningxia Qing, and immediately ran to the eldest prince's side to find Ah Zheng, but she couldn't even enter the eldest prince's tent.

Just when Cuiyu was so anxious that she could only cry, Tan Wenshi suddenly appeared and told Cuiyu that Ah was performing martial arts, and then Cuiyu ran to the martial arts arena, and the martial arts arena was good, and Cuiyu immediately found Ah Zheng.

Ning Xia Qing only thought that Ah was desperately trying to save himself today, but he didn't dare to think about it, it turned out that Tan Wenshi had tried his best like that...... Listening to Cuiyu's words, Ning Ningqing couldn't help but look bad at all, and her heart was quite uncomfortable.

Early the next morning.

The eldest prince had already interrogated that person for one night, and that person basically only tried out that King Yelu was involved, but he couldn't stand the torture and confessed to Xiao Jingyuan, but many people from the Mongolian tribe came forward to prove that Xiao Jingyuan had not left the area of the Mongolian king's tent, so the eldest prince had no evidence to identify Xiao Jingyuan.

And the Yelu tribe saw that they had been exposed, so they didn't stop doing it, and wanted to pull the first general into the water together. However, Xiao Jingyuan had already asked Tan Wenshi to arrange the tone of the insider, although the Yelu tribe was convincing, there were no other witnesses who could prove that General Qishou was related to this matter, so naturally it could only be regarded as the Yelu tribe was biting indiscriminately.

Xiao Jingyuan's side has already pushed away the suspicion, and until now, the responsibility has fallen on King Yelu, and it is rumored that the Yelu tribe is madly retaliating against Ah Zheng because Ah Zheng insists on marrying a Han girl.

Ah Zheng walked out of the tent where the man was interrogated, and after a while of the cold morning breeze blowing outside, the thick smell of blood in his nose gradually dissipated, and he had already discovered that Yelu Wushu had been staring at him for a long time.

He looked over coldly, only to see Yeluwushu's face serious and guilty. When Yelu Wushu saw that Ah Zheng was looking at him, he stepped forward and said regretfully, "I have heard it all...... We've pretty much gotten the word on our side. ”

Ah Zheng looked into the distance, his eyes were very complicated.

A few years ago, he was a rare young man on the grassland, he was good at fighting and decisive, and he made many achievements on the battlefield, but the mind of the people on the grassland was not as open as the grassland, he felt tired, so he left without saying a word.

When he came back a few years later, the things he hated hadn't changed at all, and they had even worsened. The contradictions between the Yelu tribe and the Mongolian tribes, and the contradictions between the Qi head general and the eldest prince, still have to be pulled by Ah Zheng, and even because of him, Ningxia Qingdu was involved in this mess.

Yelu Wushu suddenly knelt on one knee, knelt in front of Ah Zheng, and apologized word by word: "It's the perfidy of the Yelu Department that can't stand you!" ”

Ah Zheng frowned and looked at Yeluwushu, stretched out his hand to pull Yeluwushu up, looked into the other party's eyes and asked, "Tell me honestly, did you know about this matter before?" ”

"I don't know." Yelu Wushu said categorically: "I don't know about this matter, except for the king and a few elders, almost no one knows. ”

Ah Zheng lowered his head and thought for a moment.

This matter is so secret, naturally the less people know about it, the better, except for King Yelu and a few elders, everyone else should indeed be unaware.

Yelu Wushu just thought that he was doing the horse material business all the year round, so he followed Yelu King to Mongolia and assisted Yelu King to negotiate with the Mongolian Great Khan about the horse material trade, and he was not a person with high status in the Yelu tribe, so Yelu Wushu should really not know about this matter.

Ah Zheng also understood the meaning of Yeluwushu. Although this matter has nothing to do with Yelu Wushu, it is related to the Yelu tribe, and Yelu Wushu is for the Yelu tribe to make amends to Ah Zheng.

Ah Zheng nodded and didn't say anything more. Just tiredly walked to Ningxia Qing's tent, wanting to see how Ningxia Qing was injured, Yelu Wushu accompanied Ah Zheng and walked silently for a while, and said hesitantly: "By the way, the king and several elders want to see you." ”

Ah Zheng paused, but still didn't say anything. As for why King Yelu wanted to see Ah Zheng and what he was going to say after meeting Ah Zheng, Ah Zheng knew very well.

When he arrived at Ningxia Qing's tent, Ah Zheng stopped and said to Yelu Wushu: "You go to the king's side first, and I'll go over later." ”

"Okay." Jeruwushu answered and walked away.

Ah Zheng stood in front of Ning Ningqing's tent and did not go in, but frowned and stared at the felt cloth used as the door curtain in a daze.

He already knew that Ning Ningqing was deliberately hiding from him, conspiring with the eldest prince in private, and even using the water of the sunflower flower to avoid him.

Ah Zheng stood at the door for a while, frowned, and finally did not go in, and after leaving a word, he went to King Yelu's side first.

At this time, General Qi Shou had already received the news.

The general was so angry that he spun around in his tent, roaring and complaining vigorously.

For the failure of last night's incident, General Qi Shou is almost angry!

The general blamed everything on Xiao Jingyuan and King Yelu, blaming them for their incompetence, not only failed to kill Ning Ningqing, but also asked the eldest prince to capture alive the people they sent to work, if the eldest prince found out something, the Great Khan would definitely punish himself!

Even if the eldest prince did not find out that he was implicated in this matter, because the eldest prince and Ah Zheng went to save Ningxia Qing together, the eldest prince and Ah Zheng became more intimate, which was extremely unfavorable to the general! The general had a lot of planning before, but now not only is the bamboo basket empty, but also the wedding dress for the eldest prince! It's so hard to hold your breath!

General Qi Shou roared angrily for a long time, cursing Xiao Jingyuan countless times, but at this time, the Great Khan sent someone to call him, and General Qi Shou was busy asking what was going on, and someone said that it was related to the disputed business between the Great Khan and King Yelu before.

General Qi was stunned for a moment, then quieted down and hurriedly went out to see the Great Khan.

Lord Yin Hua Weng didn't speak for a long time, and after General Qi Shou went out, she beckoned slightly and asked softly, "Did Jing Yuan come last night?" ”

The subordinate was stunned for a moment and replied: "I did come, but at that time, the general and the lord had already rested, so Xiao Gongzi went back." The subordinate asked puzzledly: "How does Lord Weng know that Xiao Gongzi has come?" ”

Lord Yin Hua Weng frowned, and said in a thin voice, "Call Jing Yuan to me." ”

When Xiao Jingyuan came out of Lord Yinhua Weng, he only felt that the whole person was stiff.

He had never thought that a weak and gentle woman could be so terrifying! If it weren't for my sister who saw through the woman's conspiracy and told him, Xiao Jingyuan was afraid that he would still be kept in the dark until the end!

It turns out that Ningxia Qing has never married to the Yelu tribe for the love of men and women! She just said that on purpose, just to make the Mongolian tribe and the Yelu tribe want to move because of this incident, and yesterday's change was also expected by her!

She had expected that someone would kidnap her, so she had already colluded with the eldest prince. Xiao Jingyuan felt strange, how could she be a weak woman, how could she stun and tie up that big man, it turned out that from the very beginning, there were people from the eldest prince by her side to secretly protect her!

What's even more terrifying is not her luring of enemies and unpredictable prophets, but even more terrifying is her four or two thousand pounds!

There were many ways she could defuse this crisis, but she chose to put all the blame on King Jerod in order to pre-empt her purpose in coming to the Northlands.

In order to put all the blame on King Jerod, she also needed two accomplices.

The first is the Great Prince. The eldest prince personally accompanied Ah Zheng to rescue her, personally interrogated the person who had taken her, and the results of the interrogation were all directed at King Yelu, all of which was actually agreed between the woman and the eldest prince in advance.

And this second accomplice is Xiao Jingyuan himself! From the very beginning, Xiao Jingyuan fell into the trap of Ningxia Qing! It was Xiao Jingyuan who hurriedly sealed the mouths of insiders everywhere, so that King Yelu's words were regarded as indiscriminate biting, Xiao Jingyuan did not let the general and himself be dragged into the water, but instead helped Ning Ningqing to confirm King Yelu's crime!

Now, King Yelu has completely cleared his name, and Ah Zheng will definitely break with the Yelu tribe. Ning Ningqing's so-called nonsense of marrying into the Yelu tribe naturally doesn't have to be fulfilled, and she also gave Ah Zheng a good reason to break away from the Yelu tribe.

In the whole matter, the eldest prince made several efforts, and personally interrogated the prisoners, and came to the conclusion that the Yelu tribe was involved in this matter, which can be regarded as a force to promote the break between Ah Zheng and the Yelu tribe. In this way, the eldest prince has relieved the great trouble for the Great Khan, and his status will skyrocket, and in front of the Great Khan, the great prince will have more weight than the great general.

As for the horse material trade that Ning Xia Qing is concerned about - now that King Yelu has made such a scandal, he naturally has no face to fight for the horse material trade anymore, and the horse material trade will naturally fall into the hands of the Mongolian tribe, and on the Mongolian tribe's side, after this incident, the eldest prince has more weight than the general Qi Shou, and the eldest prince will definitely recommend Ningxia Qing to the Great Khan.

In this way, Ningxia Qing has achieved her purpose of coming to the Northland!

If it weren't for Lord Yin Hua's order, Xiao Jingyuan would never be able to figure out why things turned out like this!

If he had heard that his brother-in-law and sister had rested last night and still insisted on asking someone to spread the word, if he had been able to meet his sister last night and tell his sister about the matter, he would not have fallen for Ningxia Qing's plan and went everywhere to seal people's mouths! It's a pity that it's too late to say this now!

At present, he can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and his sister has just pointed out a clear way for him. If that road works, if his material can overpower Ningxia Qing's material, he will be able to fight back against Ningxia Qing in one fell swoop!

I heard from my sister that my brother-in-law had been called by the Great Khan to discuss the sale of horses...... It seems that the matter of buying and selling materials has been put on the agenda, and there is not much time left for Xiao Jingyuan to fight back!
